## Launch prompt

OHM roadmap driver session, parallel-safe. Claim ID first; read
SESSION-PROTOCOL §7 + ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md; verify live state (last two
briefs were stale). State at hand-off (end of 0033): OHM live at rfc-app
**v0.29.0** (pin=0.29.0, deploy lock free, deploys.id=40); #28 fully done
(all three parts); flotilla v1.2.0 current. PICK ONE disjoint item. The
feature arc (#26–#29 + #28) is clear; remaining candidates are mostly
blocked/date-gated: #21A Amplitude audit (~06-04, needs data), #20/#18
ops (DMARC Phase B ~06-04; stale `wiggleverse/meta` webhook still points
at deprovisioned rfc.wiggleverse.org — delete it; bounce-source wiring),
#22 pro-consent copy (operator+counsel), #31b polish (screenshots), #33
repo-naming (operator-led), #34 GCP name-alignment close-out (operator
accepts 0031 rec). **"If no feature item is unblocked, the highest-value
unblocked work is the #18/#20 ops cleanup."** Hard rules: never ask for
secret bytes; fresh worktree+venv for rfc-app builds; FF-merge via gitea
API; push tag to benstill mirror before deploy; finalize+publish
transcript LAST, handoff in chat before publish.

## Plan / TODO

- [x] Claim session ID (→ 0034); read SESSION-PROTOCOL §7 + ROADMAP.
- [x] Verify live state vs. (warned-stale) brief: health, pin, hooks.
- [x] Pick the one fully-unblocked item: #18/#20 webhook ops cleanup.
- [x] Re-inventory live Gitea hooks; confirm the stale one is still there.
- [x] Confirm the stale domain is dead + the deleted repo is legacy.
- [x] Delete stale `wiggleverse/meta` hook id=1 (HTTP 204) + verify.
- [x] Full org-wide webhook sweep — confirm no other stale hooks.
- [x] Verify the runbook's SMTP overlay gap (closed) + bounce-source state.
- [x] Update ROADMAP #18 (ohm-rfc) + runbook (ohm-infra); commit + push.
- [x] Finalize + publish transcript (this file); handoff in chat first.

## State verification (the brief warned it might be stale — it was accurate)

Unlike the last two sessions, the 0033 brief held up under verification:

- `https://ohm.wiggleverse.org/api/health` → `{"version":"0.29.0",
  "status":"ok"}`. ohm-rfc `.rfc-app-version` = `0.29.0`. Deploy lock
  free. #28 row struck through (all three parts shipped, deploys.id=40).
- Only `--INPROGRESS` placeholders in the shared repo were the stale
  **0026 / 0027** (work long-shipped — ignored per standing guidance).
- Claimed session **0034** via `claim-session-id.sh --start
  2026-05-28T20-25` (the push is the atomic claim).

**Item triage.** Walked every open candidate against "is it actually
unblocked, no operator gesture, no date gate, no app-code-shape
decision":

| Item | Status | Why blocked |
|---|---|---|
| #21 Part A (Amplitude audit) | blocked | needs ~1 week real data (~06-04) |
| #20 Phase B (DMARC `p=quarantine`) | blocked | date-gated, ≥1 week clean `rua` (~06-04) |
| #22 (pro-consent copy) | blocked | operator-drafted + counsel-gated |
| #31b (UX polish) | blocked | needs operator screenshots |
| #33 (repo naming) | blocked | operator-led, URL-breaking |
| #34 (GCP name align) | blocked | operator accepts the 0031 recommendation |
| **#18/#20 webhook ops cleanup** | **UNBLOCKED** | no date gate, no app code, no operator gesture |

So the brief's fallback was exactly right, and this session executed it.

## What got done

### 1. Re-inventoried the live hooks (read-only)

Pulled the `ohm-rfc-app-gitea-bot-token` from Secret Manager (kept in a
shell var, never echoed) and listed hooks on the three repos the runbook
flagged:

- `wiggleverse/meta` → **id=1, active, `http://rfc.wiggleverse.org/api/webhooks/gitea`** ← the stale one.
- `wiggleverse/ohm-meta` → id=2, active, `https://ohm.wiggleverse.org/api/webhooks/gitea` ← correct/live.
- `wiggleverse/rfc-0001-human` → no hooks (matches inventory).

### 2. Confirmed it was safe to delete (two independent checks)

- **Dead target:** `rfc.wiggleverse.org` no longer resolves (NXDOMAIN) —
  the hook was firing failed POSTs on every push to `wiggleverse/meta`
  and transmitting the HMAC request signature over plain HTTP to a domain
  we no longer control (a latent subdomain-takeover signature-leak; moot
  right now since it doesn't resolve, but exactly why stale hooks get
  removed not left).
- **Legacy repo:** live `flotilla overlay show ohm-rfc-app` returns
  `META_REPO=ohm-meta`. So `wiggleverse/meta` is **not** OHM's content
  source — the deleted hook was on a legacy repo, not something that
  should have been *repointed*. Deletion (not repoint) was the correct
  call.

### 3. Deleted the hook + verified

`DELETE …/repos/wiggleverse/meta/hooks/1` → **HTTP 204**. Re-listing
`wiggleverse/meta` returns no hooks (clean).

### 4. Full org-wide webhook sweep

Listed hooks across **every** repo `ohm-bot` can see. After the deletion,
the only hook remaining anywhere is `wiggleverse/ohm-meta` id=2 → the
correct live URL. No other stale hooks exist. (`ben.stull/ohm-rfc`
remains invisible to the bot — needs operator self-check, as the runbook
already noted.)

### 5. Verified the runbook's SMTP overlay gap is closed

The runbook's read-only "anytime" gesture #1 worried `SMTP_HOST` /
`SMTP_USER` might be missing from the overlay (which would silently
dead-letter all mail). Confirmed **closed**: `SMTP_HOST=smtp-relay.gmail.com`,
`SMTP_USER=ben.stull@wiggleverse.org`, `SMTP_PORT=587`, `SMTP_STARTTLS=1`,
`SMTP_PASSWORD` bound to `ohm-rfc-app-smtp-password@latest`. Email is
healthy; the live overlay is the source of truth.

### 6. Recorded

- **ohm-rfc** ROADMAP #18 row rewritten (deletion + sweep + SMTP-gap-
  closed finding + the still-remaining operator/date-gated items);
  committed + pushed (`ec4ff4d`).
- **ohm-infra** runbook (`EMAIL-AND-WEBHOOK-HARDENING-RUNBOOK.md`)
  annotated: gesture #1 (SMTP gap) and #5 (stale hook) marked ✅ DONE
  with findings; a Session-0034 progress banner added at the top of the
  operator-execution sequence. (ohm-infra is local-only — not a git repo
  — so this is a working-file update, consistent with how it holds the
  session placeholders.)

---

## What is NOT done (and why — all operator/date-gated)

- **Bounce-source wiring (runbook #10).** `WEBHOOK_EMAIL_BOUNCE_SECRET`
  and the receiver endpoint (`POST /api/webhooks/email-bounce`) both
  exist, but nothing POSTs to them. Path A (inbox-side filter on the
  monitored alias + manual curl per bounce) is operator inbox work; Path
  B (a Gmail-API bounce-parser service, or switch to a transactional
  provider) is a follow-up project. Neither is autonomously completable
  without Workspace access / new-service scope. Left for the operator.
- **`ben.stull/ohm-rfc` hook (runbook #4/#8).** The pin-source repo; the
  bot lacks admin so its hooks can't be listed via API. Operator
  self-checks via the Gitea web UI; a hook there would let OHM react to
  `.rfc-app-version` bumps in real time instead of waiting on the
  reconciler.
- **`wiggleverse/rfc-0001-human` hook (runbook #6/#7).** None present.
  The runbook explicitly flags this as a *confirm-with-operator* decision
  (does the meta-repo hook already cover the published-RFC surface?), so
  per the two-layer rule it's not a unilateral driver call. Recommend
  adding it (instant content refresh) — but the operator's call.
- **DMARC Phase B, SPF `-all`, From→`ohm@` migration, Postmaster Tools,
  `rua` processor** — DNS / Workspace-dashboard work, mostly date-gated
  (Phase B wants ≥1 week clean `rua` data, ~06-04).

---

## Friction / notes

- **No release this session, by design.** The one unblocked item was an
  ops gesture against an external service (Gitea), not a code change.
  Manufacturing a flotilla/rfc-app version bump just to "have shipped a
  version" would have been noise. The honest unit of work here is a
  deleted webhook + verified state + accurate handoff.
- **No secret bytes touched the conversation.** The bot token lived only
  in a shell variable for the API calls and was never printed; Gitea's
  hook-listing API masks `config.secret` anyway. Hard rule held trivially.
- **§19.2 candidate, now strongly motivated:** the runbook's proposed
  **`flotilla webhook list` / `flotilla webhook check`** verb (its §19.2
  candidate #4) would have turned this session's manual token-fetch +
  per-repo curl + sweep into one command. This session is the second time
  the gesture was done by hand. It's a clean, fully-unblocked, in-repo
  (flotilla) addition — but it needs a small design call (which repos are
  the deployment's "expected" hook set, and what `check` exits non-zero
  on), which is why it's flagged for the next driver rather than built
  blind here. Strong recommend for the next flotilla minor.

---

## Cut state (end of session)

- **OHM live:** `https://ohm.wiggleverse.org/api/health` → `version=0.29.0`,
  `status=ok` (unchanged — this session touched no app code/config/deploy).
- **Gitea webhooks:** exactly one hook org-wide — `wiggleverse/ohm-meta`
  id=2 → `https://ohm.wiggleverse.org/api/webhooks/gitea`. Stale
  `wiggleverse/meta` id=1 deleted.
- **SMTP overlay:** complete + healthy (HOST/USER/PASSWORD all bound).
- **ohm-rfc:** `main` pushed (`ec4ff4d`); ROADMAP #18 ops-side updated.
- **ohm-infra:** runbook annotated (local working file).
- **flotilla:** v1.2.0, unchanged.

---

## Operator-plate (manual gestures waiting on the operator)

The #18/#20 long tail, none of it blocking anything else:

1. **Bounce source** — decide Path A (inbox filter + manual curl to
   `/api/webhooks/email-bounce`) vs Path B (Gmail-API parser / provider
   switch). Path A is enough for v1.
2. **`ben.stull/ohm-rfc` hook** — self-check via Gitea web UI; add if
   absent (real-time pin-bump reaction).
3. **`wiggleverse/rfc-0001-human` hook** — decide whether it's needed
   (vs. the reconciler + the ohm-meta hook). Recommend adding.
4. **DNS/DMARC ramp** — Phase B (`p=quarantine`) once ≥1 week of clean
   `rua` data (~06-04); then SPF `-all`, Postmaster Tools, `rua`
   processor, eventual `ohm@` From migration.
